A Enzo driving a Ferrari, that sounds like music to my ears!

you have the same crystal ball I have.........ha ha

an Enzo driving a Ferrari....with Mick Schumacher as his team-mate......priceless and yet harmonious.

Sounds nice, doesn't it? But let's not get carried away: they both need to prove themselves, and the past isn't exactly full of talented sons-or-grandsons of former F1 drivers.
Sure, both Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve were world champions, but they lacked the talent of their fathers, Jack Brabham's sons weren't exactly the stuff champions are made of, and Piquet's sons, well... the least said the better. And what happened to Giuliano Alesi?

I know what you mean.....all have been not as successful as their fathers-grandfathers.....the apple does fall ......well enough said.

And before you write the words "Max" and "Verstappen", let me tell you I refuse to acknowledge the existence of said person

Ha ha, I suspect there are a number of Tifosi who feel the same, but you can't deny the guy has scary talent, and should he ever become a Ferrari driver....well, most of us hated Seb Vettel when he was at RB!! But an Enzo in a Ferrari sounds great, although his grandfather mainly drove Mclarens and Lotuses, an enemy for most Tifosi!

You may be a recent member Scuderia1967 but I can see that you have strong opinions on some of the drivers, we all seem to abandon our previous dislike of an individual once they appear in red! I feel the same animosity towards a certain Mercedes driver and I never thought I could support Seb, but as you say, we have to live with it!

I'm a recent member here, but I follow F1 since the early 70's
Anyway, like I said, I lived through Prost's years with us, so I could do the same with Max or that rapper guy from Merc... as for Seb, I never had a grudge against him: he was a rival, for sure, but not an enemy

I was never a fan of Alonso, too, but he did some amazing work for us. Even so, he never won me over

For what it's worth, my favourite drivers over the years have been Bandini/Scarfiotti/Ickx/Regazzoni/Villeneuve/Alboreto/Schumacher/Irvine/Raikkonen/Alonso//Massa and I've probably forgotten some others, I supported Prost and Mansell in red (briefly!), but only a few of them really won me over!

Prost and Alonso (and, in the future, Verstappen...) are the exceptions, I have nothing but dedication to the men in Red

You're right, I should never have forgotten Jean Alesi and Rubens either, or Amon/Scheckter/Pironi/Arnoux/Tambay for that matter, like you scuderia1967, it's dedication and loyalty to those in red, it's just that some of them bring out the prancing horse in me and others don't!

True. And, even if I didn't like them, I fully supported Prost and Alonso too, let it be said. Sadly, they both showed their troublesome personalities while with us...
